Finnish State Media: Majority of Finns in favor of NATO membership

3 comments
  1. For context, a poll done earlier this year had support for joining at just above 30%. This is an increase of 20 percentage points, which is absolutely huge. Also, the real support might be even higher since they started the poll on Wednesday and Russia attacked on Thursday.

    Also from the article, if Sweden joins, the support for joining NATO rises to 66%. If the Finnish government starts supporting joining, the popular support rises to 63%.

    Lastly, a thin majority (48% vs 41%) is against a referendum for it.
